Read the article and find out what kinds of programmes were popular in the 1960s.

ReadingReading

Television has become a very important part of our lives and we can’t imagine living without it. Throughout the world, it entertains and informs people of all ages. It is also used for advertising. (1)

The first electronic black and white television was invented in the 1920s. In the early days, only a few very wealthy people could afford television sets. In 1936 there were only about 200 TV sets in the world. (2) Then, in the USA in the 1950s, colour television was broadcast to the public for the first time, though few people bought colour television sets as they could not show black and white programmes. (3) This could show black and white and colour programmes, so people started buying these new TVs. In the 1960s, all kinds of programmes were shown, but quiz shows and soap operas were very popular. We still watch programmes like these nowadays, but we also watch reality shows and a lot of films.

Advertising on TV started in 1941 in the USA. (4) Today adverts are seen on nearly all channels all over the world.

(5) We now have wide screen plasma and LCD TVs, mini pocket TV sets and digital television. Who knows what kinds of TV we’ll have in the future?

ReadingReading

We asked a class of twelve and thirteen year-olds about their favourite television and radio programmes and this is what they told us.

Mary, 13, EnglandMy favourite programme is a talent show for singers called X Factor because I’m going to be a singer one day. Lots of people go on the show and it’s not always easy for them. They have singing and music lessons but it’s still hard. They all want to win! Sometimes they cry and they are really sad because the teachers say horrible things to them. Every year there are new people on the show. My sister and I hope that we can be on the show one day!

Natalie, 11, IrelandNatalie, 11, IrelandI don’t watch much television because I’m usually busy playing football. In fact, the only programmes I watch are about cars. One of my favourites is Top Gear. My dad watches it with me. There are three men in it and they tell us about all the new cars. They do some crazy things, too. It’s really funny and a bit silly. I remember once that they had to make a car from bits of other cars. It looked terrible! I really laughed a lot.

Zoe, 12, GreeceZoe, 12, GreeceI only watch TV on Saturday mornings. I usually prefer the radio because you can do other things while you’re listening. In the morning I listen to a radio station called Lampsi FM on my MP3 player while I’m getting ready for school. The show has got two DJs calledKaterina and Dimitris. They playall kinds of music andthey’re really funny. Theylaugh and tell funnystories and they makeme feel happy.

My favourite TV programme is a reality show called

Survivor. It isn’t on TV at the moment but it was on

last year.

In the show, two teams of people are sent to an

iland. There aren’t any houses or hotels, so the

people have to sleep outside. They can only take one

thing with them, so they usualy choose something

really usefull like a toothbrush. The people also have

to nd food and they spend a lot of time shing and

collecting frut from the trees. Every week one person

has to leeve. At the end, there are only two people on

the island and one of them is chozen as the winer.

I really like Survivor because it’s very exciting and

the people have to do things like eat insects. I thing it

really entertains you when you watch it. I don’t want

to be on the show, however. I like living in a house!Su
